Guy go do your home work. These books re attributed to him, but no one is actually sure he wrote all of them. Now the question is, if he didn't author some of these books, why re they carrying his name as the author? And what does that tell u about the authorship of the other books.
Those books were written by him as can be seen in the words and how he addressed things concerning himself.

If you say no one is sure he wrote those books, then perhaps the no one is you.

Your problem is that you find it difficult unlearning the things you have learned. That's why whenever you come across a glaring truth that contradicts your knowledge, you find it hard to accept it.

Now, many Islamic scholars claim Paul corrupted Christianity when he wrote those books in the new testament. That is an admittance to Paul writing the books. So, are we to believe you over them?

If you are the correct one, then it means all the Islamic clerics and scholars are all liars to have always said that Paul wrote those books which you say he didn't write.

Someone should please differentiate these two names; 1. JESUS 2. JESUS CHRIST

Which of the two are we meant to pray to/through??
Christ means 'the Messaih','the anointed one'.
No difference in the two,the same.

Like uscofield and uscofield nairalander.

LaughButton01:



that's a lie, pure lie. saying no messenger was sent to the world before Jesus is a lie. Allah says in the Quran "there had been no nation, except a messenger was sent to them" I don't know history much but you know, Noah was the way the truth and the life to his people, during his time and he was a messenger, and I'm sure thousand others, Moses was a messenger too.
How was Noah and Moses the way the truth and the life to the people of their time?

Did they give life to anyone for you to claim they were the LIFE?

DId they open their mouth to tell you they were the way?


LaughButton01:

now saying Muhammad was quoted to have said that is fable. Muhammad didn't speak in the Quran. as you read God said to him. "Qul" meaning "say" God told him to SAY not he himself. and every messenger of God like Jesus act based on order giving by Allah(God)
That verse I quoted was not from the Quran, but from an authentic hadith.

Except you want to use Al taquiya to deny the hadith.

[quote author=specco post=62095817]

Sorry, Jesus was not created. He is God(John 1 vs 1-3). He only came to earth in a human form and was born(John 1 vs 10). He existed ever before then.[/quote
So God waa born into the world by a woman.... He couldnt come to the world just as bhe created adam.. No father and mother..
As mighty as he is needed to come to world as a baby.. Naked, sucking a woman breast to survive, depending on a woman to take care of him...
What nonsense are you making of God u these people... What kind of mockery is this....
So when jesus was praying while on earth and prayed who was he praying too..
According to your doctrine, he (jesus) while on cross said my God my God, why have you forsaken me.... Who was he referring to... Shebi he is God..
Jesus is no God, he never claimed divinity....
He said.. My father is greater than I

When you visit Christian thread to better your understanding of Christ, you will see Muhammadia/atheist quotes everywhere without sanity and Seun want us to bear it like that because we are the most patient beings on earth.

he showed them splitting of the moon....hahahahaha. my friend, prophet Muhammad did not performed any miracle; ask your Islamic father... Muhammad said Lord I dont know the way and ask God(Jesus) to show him the way but Jesus Christ said I am the WAY.. read your quran well.
God(jesus) or. God(father of jesus)
Re: Why Do We Pray Only In Jesus Name? by Nobody: 9:25pm On Nov 05, 2017
Many reasons why we have to pray in Jesus name.

For God has highly exalted him after enduring the death of the cross. And God now gave him a name that is above every other name that in Jesus's name, every knee must bow n every tongue must confess that Jesus is Lord...

That no one cometh to the Father except through Jesus.
Re: Why Do We Pray Only In Jesus Name? by captainbangz: 9:57pm On Nov 05, 2017
And He(JESUS) is the way; no one goeth to the Father except through Him.

Go and read the passage and tell me if Mary had a choice.

An Omnipotent power spoke a decree to her. That power did not negotiate with her or seek her permission.

At all events remember I am not seriously concerned with this topic. I regard it as a myth. Just fooling around in this thread bro. Bored.
Many of you think yourselves too different from the religious fanatics you criticize but you really aren't. Simple, oh I got that wrong. You're on about how you think the story is a myth. What's the relevance of that in this discussion

Ok. Mary consented so its not r.ape. I got that wrong. Happy now?

Perhaps its then regular consensual fornication between the Holy Ghost and her as they were not married, Abi.

Olodo.

OK let me help you out here..

God = the Father
Jesus Christ = Son of God

God sent Jesus the Son to die on the cross for you and i.

You asked if Jesus is God?
Yes! A Son of God is God as well (authority might differ) but they are both God.

Who did Jesus prayed to while on earth?
Jesus prayed to God his father

Jesus said the Father is greater than I..
Yes! The Father is greater than Jesus Christ because he is the almighty God who put all authority under His son (Jesus Christ).

Yes! If that is Your understanding I will roll with it. but God the Father is God over the Son and all there is in the universe. He is Almighty God. The one and only true God (one of a kind)...just ONE!

They are the same, you can even go further and call him Jesus Christ of Nazareth like Peter and John did in Act 3:6
Re: Why Do We Pray Only In Jesus Name? by Lex11(m): 6:01pm On Nov 06, 2017
... because the Lord Jesus Christ is the only way... everything was created for Him, by Him... (John 1:2-1)

"For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,"
. - 1 Timothy 2:5

"Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12
